    Steve Bannon is an anarcho-capitalist?

    This fellow, who appears to be an immigrant from Turkey, has it all figured out. Steve Bannon is an anarcho-capitalist, apparently the most evil philosophy, worse than Nazism...

    1/ There are very few people trying to figure out Bannon's psyche: Bannon's not a Nazi or a Leninist, he's the archetypal anarcho-capitalist

    2/ That's why Bannon gets along well with the patrician class's über-capitalist libertarian crowd: Anarcho-capitalism is their ideology.

    3/ The roots of anarcho-capitalism is in Herbert Spencer: the father of social Darwinism (whose ideas inspired Nazi eugenics).

    4/ Bannon is not a Nazi, he's worse. Nazis believed in order, Bannon believes in an anarchy that only the fittest (=richest) will survive.

    5/ Anarcho-capitalists consider any kind of state intervention for a level playing field is evil. They're for a "Lord of the Flies" world.

    6/ As any true nerd would (& should) do, I've been trying to read everything I can to get a sense how Bannon thinks and I'm truly terrified.

    7/ Bannon's racism, his misogyny, all the things that make us think that he's a Nazi, is actually because he's an anarcho-capitalist.

    Yeah, Goldman Sachs is full of ancaps.
    Partisan politics, misleading or emotional bill titles, and 4D chess theories are manifestations of the same lie—that the text of the Constitution, the text of legislation, and plain facts do not matter; what matters is what you want to believe. From this comes hypocrisy. And where hypocrisy thrives, virtue recedes. Without virtue, liberty dies. - Justin Amash, March 2018

    That's what I was thinking. Looks like a metrosexual with a bunch of fake followers and incoherent writings.

    Why did they just ban travel from 6 stateless nations?
    In New Zealand:
    The Coastguard is a Charity
    Air Traffic Control is a private company run on user fees
    The DMV is a private non-profit
    Rescue helicopters and ambulances are operated by charities and are plastered with corporate logos
    The agriculture industry has zero subsidies
    5% of the national vote, gets you 5 seats in Parliament
    A tax return has 4 fields
    Business licenses aren't a thing
    Prostitution is legal
    We have a constitutional right to refuse any type of medical care

    That's a classic...

    We may be overly capitalists, anarcho-capitalist. I know I am. I’m proud of it. That’s why I wore this today.

    It's good to know what is floating around out there. Next time you're at a bar or party you want to talk about anarcho-capitalism, you'll know what reactions you might get.

    No, it is a strategic way for Trump to do what he is doing, because Obama has already done it, and Obama made the list of countries, so it gives him a padding of legal precedence. It makes it difficult for them to portray him as a dictator doing all sorts of crazy things nobody has done before, as they and you so wish to do.

    You see, Trump is actually a very highly competent person.

    Obama banned green card holders?

    Is this also the logic that's going to make Trump's universal healthcare plan good? Obama did it so it's okay now?

    steve bannon is an alt-right nationalist

    the flood of his ilk is the reason why actual ancaps left the reddit:

    and moved to

    https://www.reddit.com/r/GoldandBlack/

    'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988

    That's very sad. The co-opting is strong with the trump regime. Never has such a violent offensive been waged against libertarianism.

    Doesn't seem to be working though, does it? It would rely on an educated populace and an honest media.
